The Scalar 100 is a mid-range library that offers a powerful combination of industry-leading density, trouble-free scalability, and advanced storage networking technology. This capacity-packed system is the first tape library to deliver a storage density of 2TB? per rack unit. In fact, a standard rack cabinet can hold three Scalar 100s, giving you over 86TBs of capacity in a very compact space. Highly scalable, the Scalar 100 can grow from 15 to 96 tapes and from 1 to 8 drives. Adding capacity is easy. Upgrades take less than 10 minutes and don't require changing your rack system or adding external elevators or pass-through ports. Its integrated storage networking support improves the performance and reliability of SAN backup and delivers a complete capacity, connectivity, and management solution for new SAN technologies such as iSCSI.
